Plugged.

Let me get right to it;

i always get asked by the most random people what is it that i do here in atlanta. I’ll tell you what i don’t do…

I do not work for free; ok goodnight… lol [in real life]

Just a synopsis of what it is I do all day – 

ok, so picture this 30 year old human whom has a pretty decent mind with pretty decent goals and just recently decided that they wanted to get serious about life. They decide that in the near future they want to be able to make life decisions and have their finances be ready as well. [however] they don’t know who they need to speak to, what they should do, when they should do it or how for that matter!

Here’s where i come in…

i sit down for about 20 good minutes on the phone or in person [as long as its a good hair day] and I have them tell me their goals just as they did their friends and parents, right. After those 20 good minutes i map out what they will need to do to accomplish these goals – but not only do i map this process out, i assist them in accomplishing this [and] in maintaining their new and improved life, that i let them take all the credit for changing [inserts emoji face].

So in laymens terms, I assist individuals with most things finance:

Obtaining Funding. Personal & Business Loans. Credit Restoration. Credit Building. Business Planning. Business Setup. Bookkeeping. Accounting.

[and a slew of other things that can save a life]

Seguing —

I would have never known the importance of making wise financial decisions and planning ahead financially had it not been for me wanting to get serious about life. so ‘what is it that i do?’ – i help those who are trying to transition and better themselves financially.

Take it from me; you are not going to want to be 40 when you finally decide you want to buy a house with a 30 yr mortgage. Let’s face it, we all won’t become millionaires and buy our houses outright; most of us will be regular people waking up to a different kind of grind.

Words of Wisdom: Education yourself when it comes to finances. Understand how your decisions can effect your future. Know where you stand in life. Acknowledge your true status. Think beyond today - be a Big Picture Thinker!

The Pressure

There was a time that I couldn’t find a piece of mind

Stretching every piece of my mind, to what required a piece of my attention

Losing retention; the irony in that.

Taking in so much that I’d forget this and that.

I blamed it on the pressure

My stressors; my many responsibilities.

The rent due, lights, cable, car.. it was killing me.

No literally killing me;

Insomnia kicking in, no sleep — i had no energy.

The pressure, thinking about all the pressure.

Caught a flat tire, gotta get another one; that’s another stressor.

Money flowing in, love flowing out;

Prioritizing the things I can live without.

Just a whole lot of random pressures……

—- [Insert your many pressures in life]

I’m thankful for the pressure

Long nights, early mornings and Starbucks.

I had a random thought, and it translated like a poem actually. My recent pressures have put me in a position lately to choose, to prioritize. It was the worst-best thing that could’ve happened for me. I will admit that I’ve never been the type to force myself to choose if I could find a way to have it all. SO imagine my ignorance to making “this or that” choices. It was all bad… until it wasn’t.

Somehow I managed to make a choice and be good with that choice no matter what. I’ve excelled tremendously in the way that I react to things. Over the past however long, I’ve been really digging in with getting to know the things I like and don’t like. The things I’ll entertain and what just doesn’t work for me. The things that matter and those things that are merely around to provide commercials when you’re tired of dealing with the real things in life.

So yeah, I’m thankful for the pressure. I can say it played a catalyst in the person that I’m becoming. Feeling that pressure taught me that I had to work harder than I ever thought I’d have to work. It taught me to be honest with myself and others. To prioritize. To grind. To turn water into wine.

I feel that one whom has never had a moment when the pressure is on, 3 seconds til the buzzer, with the game winning three point jumper on you… they just won’t understand where the real grind originates from.

Words of Wisdom: Don’t be afraid of that added pressure. You’ll either get through it a conqueror or a loser; you choose. 

Have You? Are You? How’d That Work Out?

I pride myself on personally going through the things I write about BEFORE I write about them. I feel like that’s when ones opinions and thoughts are taken more into consideration. So before I chat away on this topic, let me first say that EVERY post of mine are VERY reflective of a personal experience, dressed up and turned into something suitable for readers…

Moving on…

&& With saying that, have you ever sat around and talked to someone. They seem to have ALL the answers and all the solutions to any problem. They make a point to tell you whats good and whats bad. What will make you happy and what will make you sad? You know anyone like this? However, never do you hear them relate their thoughts to real life situations. Its always “what they seen” or “what they heard”.. Never personally related to THEM.

Yeeea.. these people I simply hear what they say and ignore the message. Not that they can’t possibly be correct, but because the validity of the statement really is non existent.

To make this short and to the point. I know you may have friends that come to you for advice. Its OK not to have the answer. Its okay to have to figure out the solution right along with them. On the other hand.. DO realize that its OK to figure out the answer to your own ailment. Before you listen and take heed to someones advice just think about the questions:

• Have They?
• Are They?
• How Did That Workout?

Simple. Have they been there && done all of what they speak so expertly in. Are they practicing what they preaching to you? And lastly, how’d their own advice/thoughts work out for their own experiences. IF you feel you have a valid answer for ALL of those.. Then by all means, make your decision wisely and prepare to reap the results…

I truly hope this reach someone in the nick of time & miliseconds before one may have say down at a round table of some sort. I hope this helps someone think for themselves and avoid being handicapped by the thoughts of another. I wish to give more insight if needed. 

I hope to see you in my inbox my lovely readers.

Closure.

Many think it’s that defining conversation between two ppl that once were, acknowledging their faults, explaining why this and that didn’t work out.. It’s not. Closure is merely a self motivating factor telling and assuring yourself that you did all you could within that relationship.. So much that you can honestly feel like fault wasn’t yours.

Let’s be honest for a moment. Every relationship doesn’t end mutually. There are some that end because someone in it is bored, not ready, emotionally unstable, feeling smothered, just plain ol not interested, or in an ignorant level just being a player. Now let’s go a step further, if someone ever told you one of these things were why you guys didn’t work out, would that provide you closure or would it instead prompt yet another question? See I’ve learned that the question ‘why’ can literally be asked after every question and there can be a response.. Try it out one day..

So I feel closure comes when you don’t have to ask why or when you can feel so confident with YOU as an individual in that relationship that the question ‘why’ doesn’t even matter.

Words of Wisdom: In any relationship you encounter. Be it love, friendship, work or family.. Be the best YOU that you can be. That best friend, that employee of the month, that most dedicated lover and the most awesome brother/sister/child… that you can be.. So that if a time ever comes when someone wants to separate themselves from you, you can rest assure that it was by no fault of your own. THAT my fellow reader is closure.

Hope this touched somebody. Furthermore, Be Blessed.
